Infinity only I can strengthen

Chapter 148
Zhang Chao asked, "Where does Donghua live?"

"Donghua lives in the north of the village, near the path leading into the mountain."

"That's how it is. You give the Jingxin Pill to the child later, and I won't bother you. Let me go."

Zhang Chao got up to leave, Shufen thanked her all the way, and sent Zhang Chao far away, almost to Donghua's home.

He wants to find out the truth behind why Donghua angered the mountain god. It is very likely that this person angered not the mountain god, but the mythical beast.

Zhang Chao wants to find the address of the mythical beast, and then kill the beast with one knife.

Donghua's home is a very clean courtyard at the end of the village. He patted the door, and soon a woman with a delicate face opened the door and looked at him suspiciously.

Beautiful women are common, but handsome women are not. Zhang Chao gave Dong Hua a very high score for her appearance. This woman is so beautiful.

"Excuse me, are you Winter Flower?"

"What do you have to do with me?"

"It's like this. I heard that you annoyed the mountain god in the mountains, so I came here to find out about the situation."

"Then please come in." Dong Hua had a strange look on her face, and she led Zhang Chao into the courtyard.

When Zhang Chao walked into the yard, she finally understood why she looked strange, because there were two strangers in the yard, and the Adi Wang sneakers on the feet of these two strangers deeply betrayed their identities as reincarnations.

Can this also meet reincarnation?
But he thought about it again, there are reincarnations in every district performing tasks, and it is very common to meet new reincarnations in Chaisang.

The reincarnation was also very surprised to see Zhang Chao's appearance. At this time, Donghua said: "I have said many times, I have never seen the mountain god. Last time when the full moon was full, I went to the mountain to collect firewood and walked for a long time. , I lost my way. When I was very hungry, I saw a shrine for offering sacrifices to the mountain god. There was food under the shrine, so I took some cakes to eat. Later, the village chief found out about it, so he thought that what happened in the mountain The earthquake was because I stole the food of the mountain god, which made the mountain god angry."

Then, Donghua said loudly and impatiently: "Who are you? Why haven't I seen you?"

Not to mention that this girl looks pretty when her hair is on fire.

Yuan Yang, the reincarnator, smiled and said: "I am a Taoist priest who catches monsters. This is my partner Gong Jinrong. We heard this rumor when we passed by here, so we came here to find out. To tell you the truth, it's not that I don't believe it." Immortals, it’s just that there are too many evil deeds in the name of immortals in the world, so there is no room for us to doubt it.”

Yuan Yang is a bit short, about 1 meters tall, and he is very handsome. Donghua treats him better, and looks at him softer. Gong Jinrong is a normal man with a height of about 75 meters, with a normal face and mouth. Flowers were less kind to him.

These two people could clearly feel the difference between Donghua and them, so Yuan Yang was mainly the one doing the talking.

At this time, several people looked at Zhang Chao, they were very curious about Zhang Chao's purpose.

Zhang Chao said with a smile: "My name is Zhang Chao. The thing is like this. Someone asked me to come to Shixi Village to bring a message, which was to bring it to Shufen in Shixi Village. When I asked all the way to Shixi Village, I searched for it for a long time. I couldn't find any sign of Shixi Village. Just when I was about to give up, white mist floated in the official road, and then I walked and walked in the white mist to a cave, and I walked along the cave and finally came to Shixi Village .

So I heard about it from Shufen, because I think this white mist is very problematic, and with the mountain god, I suspect that it is not the mountain god who is playing tricks, but the monster, so I came here to inquire. "

Yuan Yang asked: "Who are you speaking for? Who is the Cuihua you are talking about?"

"Why do you ask so clearly?"

"Sorry, it's not that I want to ask clearly, but it's easy to be misunderstood by your sudden appearance. Maybe you are playing tricks? Maybe you are the mountain god."

"Didn't you just show up suddenly? Where in the world can a Taoist priest come from? Why haven't I heard of it?"

"There are so many cultivators in the world." Dong Hua said, "Zhang Lu from Hanzhong, Zhang Jiao from Puyang, and those otherworldly masters are all related to Taoism. Just because you don't know it doesn't mean he doesn't know it." exist."

Yuan Yang nodded confidently at the side, and Zhang Chao realized that he was not as handsome as Yuan Yang, "Hehe! Hanzhong Zhang Lu? That's just a warlord who ruled Hanzhong and was not ordered by the court; as for Puyang Zhang Jiao, I don’t need to say more about what kind of guy he is.”

Yuan Yang said: "Don't talk about it, you are the court, who are you?"

"You don't care who I am! Donghua, let me ask you, you were alone when you went into the mountains to collect firewood, so how did the village chief know about your stealing pancakes?"

"I didn't steal pancakes, I took them."

"If you don't ask, it's stealing."

"I asked, but no one answered me."

"Self-acquisition without a sound after asking is also stealing!"

"But I was starving to death."

"Okay, don't discuss this." Zhang Chao said impatiently, why is this girl so aggressive, "Dong Hua, it is not a good thing for the village head to use you to sacrifice to the mountain god, you will lose your life."

Dong Hua said: "No, the village head is not this kind of person."

"The so-called sacrificing to the gods is usually done with the lives of mortals. It's impossible for you to go around the mountain and say hello to be a sacrifice. I've traveled all over the world, and I don't know these things?"

Yuan Yang also echoed, "He's right about this, and I also suspect that the village chief wants to sacrifice your life to the mountain god."

Regarding the mission, Yuan Yang also wanted to know how the matter was leaked.

Seeing Yuan Yang open his mouth, Dong Hua's temper became better, "I told this story when I was washing clothes by the river and chatting with people, and I didn't think about it so much at the time."

Zhang Chao asked: "When did the earthquake happen? How long has it been since you stole the cake?"

Dong Hua said: "An earthquake happened the day after I took the pancakes."

She also strongly emphasized the word 'take'.

Such a coincidence?
Zhang Chao's face changed drastically, as did the faces of the two reincarnations. It seemed that the three of them all thought of one place. Could it be that the mountain god was really angry.

but!

He found his blind spot. If there really was a mountain god, he should have shot directly when Donghua was stealing pancakes. Why did he wait until the next day to get angry?
How long is the mountain god's brain circuit?

There is a problem here.

Yuan Yang said: "Is the earthquake powerful?"

"There is a lot of noise in the mountains, and I don't know the specifics."

Zhang Chao said, "Do you know what's going on with the cave and the thick fog outside the village?"

"do not know."

"Is there an inn in the village?"

"No, if you want to stay, you can go to the village chief's house. The merchants passing by nearby live in the village chief's house."

"Okay, I don't have any more questions. You guys can talk slowly."

Zhang Chao chose to leave, and he planned to sneak behind when the village head sent Donghua up the mountain to see what was going on.

Soon, Zhang Chao asked about the village chief’s house.
The village head's house has two big houses, one is where he lives, and the other is divided into a simple inn by him.

Zhang Chao entered the house and immediately saw the village chief, an old farmer in his 50s squatting on the ground smoking a dry cigarette.

"Village chief, I'm staying in the shop."

The village chief squatted on the ground and coughed a few times, "Eight coins a day."

Zhang Chao touched his bosom, and suddenly found that he had left all the money to Shufen. He took out his pocket and searched for no money, and then took out Zang Hong's cloth bag, and found no money, but there was an official seal in it. The official seal was thrown to the village chief, "There is no copper plate, but there is a pile of copper, so let's use it as accommodation expenses, and the extra money will be used as my food expenses. I want to live until the day you sacrifice Donghua. When will you sacrifice Donghua?" flower?"

"Almost, there are still a few days left." The village chief reached out to pick up the official seal, and when he picked it up, he threw the official seal back to Zhang Chao like an electric shock, "My lord, are you kidding me, little shou I can’t afford it, I can’t bear it! You can eat whatever you want, live wherever you want, and the little one will take good care of you.”

"What am I kidding you?"

Zhang Chao picked up the official seal in a daze. Aren't they all made of copper? Could it be that the old man couldn't miss it?

He asked, "What's the matter with the white mist and caves outside the village?"

"What white mist? Which cave?"

Zhang Chao described Baiwu and Dongzi, and the village chief said blankly, "I don't know, I haven't seen it before, why don't I arrange some youngsters to go and find out?"

"Okay! Let me ask you, why do you think the earthquake on the mountain is the mountain god's anger?"

"It has always been like this. An earthquake is the anger of the mountain god. If this matter is not resolved properly, the mountain god will destroy the village in a fit of anger. Thousands of people, are they just dying for nothing? That's not okay."

"Okay. How are you going to offer sacrifices to Winter Flower?"

"I plan to send her to the mountain to worship the mountain god."

"What kind of sacrificial method?"

"Dress her up beautifully and send her to the shrine, and then the mountain god will come out and marry her as his wife."

"Being a daughter-in-law? Didn't you eat her?"

"How could it be? Of course it's a daughter-in-law. We've always come here like this."

"Then did the group of daughters-in-law who sacrificed before come back alive?"

"No."

"I see, you help me clean a room and come out, and I will live here."

Soon the village head took Zhang Chao to a room on the second floor. After the village head left, Zhang Chao sat on the window sill and looked at the poor Shixi Village. This haunting monster started haunting long ago,

Sending off their daughter-in-law is the way people in Shixi Village appease this monster. From this point of view, if there is something in the mountain, it should not be a mythical beast. If there is nothing, it means that the group of women in the past were eaten by wild beasts, or escaped.

As for the truth of the matter, we have to wait until the day of the sacrifice.

Late at night, the two reincarnators also moved into the wooden house of the village chief's house. They lived on the ground floor.

First Gong Jinrong entered the house, and Yuan Yang entered the house after a long time.

Seeing Yuan Yang coming in, Gong Jinrong asked, "How is your investigation going?"

"That Zhang Chao was entrusted by Mang's head to find Shufen." Yuan Yang said in a mysterious voice, "Do you know who Mang's head is?"

"You can't ask for it."

"Let me tell you, the name of the reckless man is Gao Lan!"

"Gao Lan?" Gong Jinrong's eyes lit up, "Hebei four courtyard pillars?"
